Positive Reviews
positive:
Excellent location
The location of the hotel could not be better when you're in Florence. It's in the heart of the city, putting you within walking distance of many of the city's historical attractions such as Giotto's Campanile and Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral.
positive:
Good amenities
The hotel features good amenities in the rooms including free wireless Internet and satellite television so you won't get bored while indoors. There is an extra wool blanket if you need one. If you have any valuables, you can safely store them inside the safe provided in the chamber.
positive:
Lots of extras
There are many extras available here such as babysitting services, self-parking, valet parking, cribs & rollaway beds, laundry services, and concierge services. Some of these extras attract an extra fee, but they're still quite convenient if you need them.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Very small rooms
The size of the rooms could definitely be bigger. There is very little space available to spread out, which can be a pain, especially if you're staying as a group. The shower area is even worse; there is barely enough room to take more than one step.
negative:
Breakfast
The optional breakfast has a rather limited selection, and the portions are quite small. Considering the cost, the hotel could provide much more for the guests. A breakfast at one of the eateries nearby maybe a better option.
negative:
There is a bit of noise
There is a bit of noise coming from the street, from within the hotel, and even from the nearby church bells.
